It was always a stupid theory.
The knuckledragging, homo sapien haters can put this in their pipe and smoke it!
It’s a good thing some government outlawed those prehistoric SUVs. Why, they almost killed humans, too.
(Do I really need a /sarc tag?)
B.S.
Ice ages have been coming and going for a few million years now and the Mammoths rode through them with no problem.
What was the difference last time? Man.
This is just a PC attempt to resurrect the Lib favorite Noble Savage myth
“Global warming killed the mammoths.” Another piece of crap from the Leftards.
Can these lefties just go ahead and off themselves and be done with it? Would save a lot of time and money. Seriously.
Why couldn’t woolly mammoths just stop driving gas-guzzling personal vehicles, switch from coal to “renewables” to generate power, and stop redeveloping the land so much . . . ? (Oh wait; they were wild animals. Climate change??)
“Climate change.”
Yeah, that’s it, “climate change.”
And it’s happening again, unless you renew my superfatted research grant.
Isn’t it amazing how many scientists come up with theories that demand huge grants in order to Save Mankind.
Blame it on Bush. Why not? Just as stupid an accusation as those for global warming, poverty, starvation, and lack of sunspots on the sun which are also blamed on Bush.
Never let facts get in the way of faux science.
What a good job.
Get a grant to study if rocks be come sand.
File a report.
Get the money.
Move on.
We are stupid.
They need to get off the idea that this earth is tens of thousands or millions of years old. It simply is not, as scientists have proven time and again.
The problem is their theory of evolution, which never happened. All skeletons of species have appeared fully formed and no intermediary skeletons have ever been found, despite the desperate search for them.
Something large and catastrophic froze those mammoths in place. Many of them still had undigested food still in their stomachs, and their bodies were perfectly preserved in ice.
Now, what on earth can drop the air temperature so fast that it can instantly freeze something as big as a mammoth?
I don’t have a ready answer for that, but it happened. One of the more curious things, though, is that explorers haven’t found a similar number of quick-frozen humans in the same areas.
For all they know a virulent strain of flu killed them off.
I know this sounds silly, but I'd like to run a scoreboard where FReepers can contribute to the semi-official tally.
Keeping a Sunni Vs. Shia Scorecard Ping List
Although it might be interesting to discover what caused this or that species to become extinct, there are 4 things to keep in mind when reading articles like this:
1. Climate change happens. All the time.
2. 99% of all species that have ever lived are now extinct.
3. One of the great things about the human race is that we no longer depend on any particular climate to survive and that we have, in our hands, the tools to avoid extinction (including the ultimate tool of space travel)
4. In 5 billion years our sun will go red giant, causing the worst climate change the earth has ever known (and we’d better be living elsewhere by then)
Darn. That is kind of disappointing.
